    Can you imagine a prime Manny Pacquiao getting beaten by Teofimo Lopez? He’d batter him and stop him. It wouldn’t be competitive.

    He’s got 3 losses now in 20 fights.

    Perhaps he’s not quite as elite as we initially thought?
    He never out-grew his amateur style of fighting. Could be his fault for being stuck in the amateur arena for far too long.

      It was a really bad decision. Like the first fight between Kovalev and Ward.

            I think Loma has become so enamored with his ability to outbox opponents that he looses track of what is actually happening in the ring. He's not making sure he undoubtedly banked each round.

            We've all see playground basketball players who incessantly dribble, cross opponents over, and bypass opportunities to score, which is the point of the game.

            Rounds 10 and 11 are the only rounds that come to mind that he won without a doubt.

              He's decent. He's just not on the same level as Mayweather like Dan Rafeal and the Top Rank blowhards were saying. He's a very one-dimensional fighter. All he has is quickness. He's easy work for anyone he can't overwhelm with his speed.

                I disagree that it was a bad decision. I did have Kovalev winning that fight because of the KD. Loma had no 10-8 rounds.

                    He didn't take **** to school. Haney destroyed his body while Loma spent most of the fight punching air. Lets also not forget the Teo fight. Another guy that showed Loma aint **** when his opponents know how to deal with his speed.

                      Gtfoh. Haney landed one punch at a time. Lomenchenko was landing on him 3 to 1 throwing combinations.

                      He was backing the young buck up and snapping his head back repeatedly. You just in denial. I give him credit for taking some awesome shots but he was right in front of the guy getting countered all night
